Where this sits
In N.B.A.A.'s thinning scissors lineup the N.B.A.A. Thinning GM 22 Scissors occupies the premium tier, priced below the N.B.A.A. Short Thinning Scissors 6.0. Manufactured in Japan.
The N.B.A.A. Thinning GM 22 carries a 22-tooth blade suited to moderate texturising and weight removal. With fewer teeth than a fine-tooth thinner, it takes more hair per pass — useful for bulk reduction and blending through heavier sections. Built in special steel with an offset handle.
